Supersonic Dual Bell Axisymmetric Minimum Length Nozzle Conception for High Propulsion Thrust

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The aim of this work is to develop a new numerical computing program to design a new form of a dual bell axisymmetric supersonic minimum length nozzle contour, adapted to two different altitudes, usually at sea level and space, giving a supersonic uniform and parallel flow to the exit section. The first bell has a uniform and parallel sonic inlet and a low-altitude adaptation, with a reduced supersonic Mach number, while the second bell has a supersonic inlet and uniform and parallel flow and high altitude adaptation with high supersonic Mach number. The two bells are attached to an inflection point at the exit of the first bell. The passage from low altitude to high altitude is done without any mechanical activation. The purpose of this type of nozzle is the possibility of supersonic flight in two different regimes adapted into two different altitudes, under the assumption of a calorically and thermally perfect gas. This type of nozzle has an inflection point at the attachment point of the second bell to the first bell. The design is done using the method of characteristics. Solving the equations is done numerically by the predictor corrector algorithm. The validation of the results is controlled by the convergence of the critical sections ratio, calculated numerically, to that given by the theory. In this case, all the design parameters automatically converge towards the desired solution.
